The guys at replica maker Quantum Mechanix have a Halloween present for the Trek fans, by presenting a spooky video of John DeLancie, Star Trek TNG’s Q, reading Edgar Allen Poe’s "The Raven". Watch it below

John DeLancie reads The Raven

This video is the first of QMx new "Masters Series" of dramatic readings.

QMx are known as the makers of replicas from Star Trek, Firefly, Battlestar and more. But CEO Andy Gore tells TrekMovie that they want to do more than just be about selling things to fans, but also giving something back to the community. He hopes to do more "Masters Series" videos and is looking for feedback of what people would like to see, so sound off in the comments below.

Excellent performance! And very appropriate, don’t you think? Since Q was something of a raven taunting the Enterprise crew. Hmmm… I wonder if someone could make a Trek version… “Never more, warp core.”

@6: True, that! I just meant works like this, and the version of Hamlet with David Tennant and Patrick Stewart are the one that make me sit down, shut up, and pay attention. They “click” with me better now than they did when I had to read them in english class!
